About

Together we can…Think Big, Have Fun, Learn More! Ridgeway Infant School, Uplands Avenue, Littleover, Derby DE23 1GG We believe it is important to support our children and their parents in any way we can and this is why we offer wraparound care provision on site, to help working parents/carers who need out of school hours care for their children.

Children from Ridgeway Infant and Gayton Junior School can attend. The club comes under the umbrella of the school's Ofsted registration and is run by staff who are employed by the school. Children's individual needs are considered and values deriving from different racial, cultural, religious and linguistic backgrounds are recognised and respected.

Breakfast Club runs from 7:30am to 8:45am in the morning. Children are provided with healthy breakfast and can then play before starting school. We can take up to 30 children each morning. After School Club runs from 3:20pm to 5:45pm [5.15pm on Fridays] Children can be booked in until 4.30pm and will have a snack.

Children booked for the full session are provided with a light meal and drink. We can take up to 30 children each afternoon.
